It happened again today. At Autotask Community Live, a backup vendor offered tips on business continuity and privacy in the health care market. Then that distracting “HIPPA” slide surfaced. Question: What exactly does the second P in HIPPA stand for?Answer: Nothing. The acronym is HIPAA — one “P.” It’s Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA, not HIPPA). That’s it. End of The VAR Guy’s rant. Time to step off the soap box and get back to live blogging.
